Subject: [PATCH -next v2] staging: rtl8192e: rtllib_module: fix missing free_netdev() on error in alloc_rtllib()

Add the missing free_netdev() before return from alloc_rtllib()
in the error handling case.

Return error code from rtllib_softmac_init(), so it can be checked
in alloc_rtllib().

Signed-off-by: Yang Yingliang <yangyingliang@...wei.com>

v2:
  return error code from rtllib_softmac_init() and add check return value
  of rtllib_softmac_init().
